The Day That Changed Our Lives

146, Christmas they will never see
Behind locked bars and doors
They will forever be
Once singing and dancing through the day
Not enough windows to get away

Because of this act, it is true
Things are much safer for me and you
A few people right from the start
Took this tragedy
Straight to their hearts

They fought for us in court
And they’ve made some laws
They’ve helped us at work
And when we get old
We’ve them to thank for being so bold.
